Sleep in, take it slow, and still have an incredible day exploring Jost Van Dyke. With a late departure at 11 AM and a return at 5:30 PM, this private charter gives you plenty of time to enjoy the island’s best spots without the early morning rush.
Start the day at Foxy’s Tamarind Bar in Great Harbour, where you can grab a drink, check out the legendary beach bar, and soak up the laid-back island vibes. From there, take a short hike to the Bubbly Pool, a natural rock formation where the waves create a fun, foamy jacuzzi effect. Next, we’ll stop at Sandy Spit or Sandy Cay, two picture-perfect, uninhabited islands with soft white sand and crystal-clear waters.
We’ll wrap up the day at the world-famous Soggy Dollar Bar in White Bay, where you’ll have a few hours to enjoy the beach, sip a Painkiller, and take in the unbeatable scenery. Whether you’re up for some beachside fun or just want to kick back in a hammock, this is the perfect way to spend your day on Jost Van Dyke.
